Sound maps
We enjoyed working in our table groups to produce these sound maps. We had to use our bodies and voices to create different noises for each scene and then performed in front of the class.

Growing cress
We have been looking at what plants need to grow and have discovered that cress needs sunlight. Our plants have all started to lean towards the window to get as much sun as possible.

Parts of a plant
We are learning about what plants need to grow and started off by looking at the different parts of a flowering plant. We have made some lovely labelled diagrams which explain the role of the four main parts – the roots, stem, leaves and flower.

meet my monster
We have had great fun this week creating our own story books all about monsters. We have each made a pet monster, given it a name and started writing about what happens when the monster follows us to school one day. Surprisingly, things don’t go very well! We will hopefully share some of our finished stories soon.
